I actually believe that a depression would be good for America's soul, none of the young folks understand bad times and consequently haven't acquired the lessons of the school of hard knocks. Their priorities are way out of wack.

Tough times build character and wisdom and the younger generations are short of both.

In that sense, you’re right. Kids have no idea what tough times look like and while I’m trying to teach my daughter (who is old enough to understand), it will take a reality check to get the message through.
